I got a good amount of work done this weekend, and also started making some good changes.  Friday, I drove over to John Marsh’s house to pickup the racecar.  We’re putting a new engine in the car before NOPI Round 3, rebuilding the supercharger, and making some other changes.

On the way to Marsh’s house:  “Who all seen the leprechaun say Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”  <-  You’re awesome if you get that

Sunday, I went to my friend Greg’s house to pickup a new bottom end and spare transmission for the racecar.  This block is similar to last year’s setup, so we’ll be making good power again.  After getting my haircut and being reminded of how bald I am getting :( , I installed a new Garage Vary lip on my street car.  I had one on it before, but it shattered after years of abuse.
